Wheel Rim Problems of Chrysler Sebring - part 2

I have had 8 tire failures during 15000miles of driving. Been to goodyear dealer 56 times and car dealer 6 times. Both say there is nothjing wrong, but aaa truck drivers all say it is faulty rims on the Sebring. I have read of dozens of similar problems on the NHTSA web sitre. Took copies to dealer who disputes the validity of persons' report to NHTSA. I have spoked to Chrysler hotline 3 times and goodyear's once. All say there is no reported problem and to go to dealer. I told dealers I am afraid to drive this car on a freeway. The car has been farther than 30 miles from home. Most occurences happened during the warranty but dealer now says it is past warranty. I suspect cvhrysler is hiding information from other Sebring owners and there have been no deaths from flat tires, so there has been no recall. I will continue to contact Chrysler to get total failures of the tires on the Sebrings. Nhtsa has reports on wheel problems on 1998 and 1999 Sebrings. I have all the records of aaa calls, dealer visits and tire dealer visits. (tiresize: p215/50ri7).

The rims on all four wheels are bent due to a defective design which may cause a tire blowout. Common problem.

I have a Chrysler Sebring lxi 1998 with 17 in. Low profile wheels currently 64,000. I notice that city driving has been extremely hard on my wheels. The first year that I had it, the rims bent under regular road travel. The inability to handle regular driving appears to be to uncommon and I felt that I must file a complaint before this goes unnoticed.

Alluminum rims lose air. Has happened three times in three years - tire explodes. Dealer said that Chrysler has problem with rims on Sebrings. My out of pocket expenses to date are around $2,000 plus an increase in auto insurance. I want Chrysler to recall the aluminum rims. They are dangerous. We've had three accidents in three years because of exploding tires in freeway driving. Please do something. (tiresize: standard)( dot number: tire size: standard ).

Tires are deflating and rolling off wheels due to a problem with rim. The consumer indicated that 12 tires deflated, but the dealer says it happens only to this vehicle. (goodyear tire p215/50r17 and dot # m6pclnwr0200).

Vehicle had several flat tires. This was due to poor sealant of the aluminum rims at the factory, causing air to leak out.

Possibly wheel rim failure.

I have replaced 3 wheels & 2 tires because of the rims bending. I will never buy another Chrysler product.

Rims are bending easily and tires will not stay inflated. Consumer had to have rims repaired 7 times. Consumer also started a file with Chrysler #8432551.

Replaced the rims on all four wheels five times due to premature cracking. Please give any further details.

I have never had a flat tire untill I owned this vehicle. The problem I believe is with the aluminum rims. They lose air, the rim bends up easily, I never know when I'm going to have another flat tire because of these stupid rims that look nice. All tires on my vehicle have been replaced. This car is a death trap and me and my daughter might not be so lucky the next time I get a flat tire because of my rims!!!!!!!t (tiresize: p215/50r17)( dot number: tire size: p215/50r17 ).
